Synopsis:
"An Erotic Nightmare
Cincia is a dancer in a nightclub in Zagreb
who meets Anne, a sexy stripper. As soon as Anne moves into
Cincia's apartment, a steamy relationship erupts between the
two women. Haunted by bloody nocturnal visions, Anne fears
she is going insane as her nightmares depict gruesome crime
scenes where she may be the perpetrator! Anne gradually loses
her sense of psychological balance when the dreams and reality
begin to blur. Mix in hypnosis, a jewel theft, suicide and
a police investigation and you have a never-before-released
super-sized slice of sexy slasher psychedelica from the golden
age of European pulp cinema." -

My oppinion:
This Franco sleaze-fest is moving very
close to the borders of soft porn. This obviously was a close
to no-budget movie. The Plot is very thin and clearly not
too important to Franco, and there's a big amount of nudity
in it. The score made by Bruno
Nicolai works very well at some
points to create the dreamlike atmosphere the movie tries
to offer. "Nightmares Come at Night" did disappoint
me however, mainly because the acting is so unconvincing at
times and this sort of "broke the spell" some scenes
had on me in addition to the lack of a decent plot. At times
I must admit I was pretty bored by the whole thing.
In my opinion, this is far from being one of Franco's best
movies, but it's always fun to see Franco films I haven't
even heard about.
Only see this if you're a Jess
Franco fan, otherwise I'd stay away from this one.
My rating:
